DrSpalding Pete the cat books do not disappoint! Children in the primary grades thoroughly enjoy these books. Universal design 2.3 could work and English learner strategy two could work as well specifically if you were having the students partner read or if you used this book as a guided reading text. 3y

This MF theodor seuss geisel picture book is a great resource for a Choral reading. The book has a song that is repeated throughout the story which allows for an easy read along. There are also math questions thrown in when Pete looses his buttons and you have to determine the amount left. https://www.readingrockets.org/article/integrating-writing-and-mathematics #UCFLAE3414SP21

Pete the Cat books are funky Fictional stories about a cool little cat and his day to day adventures at home and school. These books can be used for S, RA‘s, and CR‘s. A UDL guideline to consider to align with these books are little ones can highlight patterns, critical features,big ideas, and relationships. (3.1) #ucflae3414sp20

RaivionneC Check out the Pete The Cat website for videos of read alouds, activities, worksheets and much more. http://www.petethecatbooks.com/ 5y

RaivionneC For ELL students these books are great for providing contextual support through audio visuals, models, demonstrations, realia, body language and facial expressions. 5y

Pete The Cat and his four groovy buttons by James Dean is a fiction picture book. In my opinion was an OK read but the activities I found for it were really cool and there seemed to be a lot of activities. They have math and reading assignments for this book. This book is a Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor award winner.

Alexush And some of the many activities can be found at https://www.pre-kpages.com/pete-the-cat-activities/ for this book id do a RA and the UDL id use is 7.3 because this book is for a young age. The ESOL strategy I‘d use is 2 because there are so many small group activities you can do with this. (CMC) #Ucflae3414f19 5y

Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy buttons was written by James Dean and Eric Litwin. It is a great book to help children learn to count backwards, sequence, and gives a great story line. This book also is great because it take the kids on a journey and has a plot twist at the end (he talks about his belly BUTTON). Pete the Cat also got awarded the Geisel Award.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I picked up these today.

Tagged book includes math and a funny twist (if you're if target age—not for us grown-ups) (see spoiler below).

Of these three, I liked "I Love My White Shoes" best. I entered one quote on a previous post, and I'll put a spoiler observation/complaint in a comment below.

Overarching point of Pete the Cat seems to be "It's all good."

JoyBlue Even after the four buttons pop off and roll away, Pete still has his belly button! 😉 6y

JoyBlue In "White Shoes," the shoes probably would have turned purple, not blue, after the blueberries (they were already red). You may think I'm being unnecessarily picky; but it wouldn't hurt the story line, may be more accurate, and would teach about secondary colors. ??? 6y
